Publications
Though Higher Education Strategy Associates and the Canadian Education Project have only been in existence since January 2010, prior to that, the organization operated as the Canadian office of the Educational Policy Institute. In this former incarnation, our staff authored a number of important publications on national and international issues in higher education policy, which may be found below.
